    Soldering

    This guitar ships with active electronics. Moving to a passive pickup like this one means rewiring the guitar and removing the battery box, more work than a straight pickup swap.

    Why we say this

    Switching from the stock active EMG wiring to a passive humbucker means removing the active wiring and battery box and rewiring for passive electronics, not just a pickup swap.

    SolderingRouting

    This is a full-size humbucker, so it needs the pickup cavity routed larger to fit. Bigger job than a straight solder swap.

    Why we say this

    A standard Gibson-spec humbucker, so it fits the cavity once enlarged from this guitar's stock single-coil route. Sometimes called Jazzblastering in offset-guitar forums, this is a full body route job, not a solder-only swap.
